Finance is a language in itself. Therefore, we make sure all financial translations are managed to accurately reflect both the content and terminology. Document types we handle include:
And more…
HQ-Translators was chosen to handle these financial translation projects for two main reasons:
The end client is a multinational financial services corporation based in the US, with thousands of offices and employees throughout the world. Established in many countries around the world, the firm mainly does business in wealth management, investment banking, equity, trading, etc.
The end client had already finished putting together its end-of-year financial documents and was about to forward them to the board of directors for approval when they realised that they were not yet translated. Consequently, they had to have them translated promptly to avoid financial penalties from the government.
We asked for and obtained the client’s financial documents for the previous years (both source and target). Having converted them from PDF to Word, we successfully aligned those useful reference files to create a translation memory. After analysing the files we received from the client with the newly created TM, we realised that 30% of the content was already translated which gained us 30% of the time frame we had for this rather urgent assignment.
Thanks to the translation memory we had created, we could complete the project earlier than the client had anticipated, much to his surprise. We saved time on our side and we also saved him money as we decided not to charge for the repetitions encountered after exploiting the reference files the client sent us.
